....ick Scott attended early services Sunday at Broward's oldest Baptist Church, softly pitching his re-election to black churchgoers.

His four minutes of remarks to more than 500 congregants at First Baptist Church Piney Grove in Lauderdale Lakes concentrated on the biographical, touched on policy, and emphasized his faith.

"Jesus Christ is my savior," he said to a chorus of amens and clapping. The governor described his "wonderful Christian mother and very wonderful Christian grandmother, and they told me all along that Jesus Christ was my savior.

Am I wrong?

He got the applause because he spoke for ONLY four minutes, instead of "windbag"ing it. I'd applaud too.
Imagine, a politician getting in front of a crowd and speaking for a MERE four miutes.

No politician has ever spoken during Sunday services in any church I’ve ever attended. Not even politicians who are members of the congregation.

Oh. Not in my state.

You think people would vote Republican because of Huckabee? I wouldn’t.

Speaking of church going politicians, when was the last time our king and potentate Obama graced the inside of a Christian church?

I’m sure his Muzzie prayer rug somewhere deep in the WH is darn near worn out...

If you think Caliph Baraq spends any time praying, I think you’re pretty far off.
He’s all about having a good time...golf, vacations, Reggie, etc.
